About Me:
I was 25 and newly married when I started losing my hair. I dealt with patches for about 6 months before I went completely bald. I lost all my hair within two very traumatic weeks. Nothing significant has regrown, except some peach fuzz on my arms and face within the last 3 months. I'm optimistic but reserved about it at the same time.
My mom also lost her hair when I was younger and she has been bald for 15+ years now. Together we have tried most products, wigs, and makeup and we are a wealth of experience. Thanks to her, I knew what to expect and how to deal with it. I think I feel more beautiful now than I did with my own real hair. I am definitely stronger and more confident in myself because I have accepted who I am and am comfortable with myself. It took some time but the journey I have traveled to be able to say that has been a good one. God doesn't give anything you can't handle! Please contact me if you need any advice and/or are new to alopecia. I would love to help! You can learn from our mistakes and our successes!
